Fellows’ Recently Published Works
Supporting, promoting, and deploying artistic and humanistic scholarship for and by Carolina’s faculty
Through the Institute’s fellowships and programs, we support faculty by offering an interdisciplinary environment to pursue artistic and scholarly projects that lead to publication, exhibition, composition, and performance.
This opportunity not only shapes our Faculty Fellows during their semester in Hyde Hall, but also contributes to each respective field and discipline, and allows Fellows to bring the knowledge they have acquired back into the classroom.
Fellows Celebration
Each spring, the Institute for the Arts and Humanities hosts a Fellows Celebration, which allows us to recognize major artistic and scholarly achievements. Please complete this survey to provide details for any major work staged, exhibited, or published in 2024. We are especially interested in single-authored and co-authored monographs, edited and co-edited volumes, major translations, artwork, exhibitions, stage productions and performances, documentaries, and musical recordings.
If you have any questions about the purpose of this survey, please contact Silas Webb, IAH Program Administrator, at slwebb@email.unc.edu or 919-843-2651. Please respond by November 22, 2024 to be included in the 2025 Fellows Celebration.
